The rising of Halal has made the consumers to think twice before using any product because it is proven that Halal product can offer good quality, cleanliness, hygienic, safety, authentic and nutritious. Halal has created awareness to the consumers and supplier to use or supply the good according to Halalan Thoyyibban principle. Many logistics companies in Malaysia have adapted Halal in their operation. However, the lack of employees, skills and experience become the major problem to operate Halal in their operations. There are not enough skills and experience workers who can handle the consignment according to the Halal procedure. Hence, training in the Halal logistics industry professional is crucial as the lack of professionalism in the transport and logistics process in the supply chain may cast doubts on the Halal status of a product. The purpose of this research is to present the relationship between the training needs in Halal logistics industry in Malaysia and investigates its relationship with demand, people and awareness. The data collection instruments used was a questionnaire which was administrated to a total sample of 162 respondents from the middle management level in the logistics companies who have the Halal certification by Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia (JAKIM) or Halal Industry Corporation (HDC). Sample selection was based on purposive sampling. The analysis involved statistical methods using Predictive Analytics Software (PASW) 18.0 such as reliability and validity test and multiple regressions. The result indicated that training needs in Halal logistics industry are related to demand, people and awareness which to explain the significant influence to the Halal logistics industry.","PeriodicalId":404626,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Business, Engineering & Industrial Applications Colloquium (BEIAC)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123775181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is to identify and manage these hazards, particularly in a local STP in Malaysia, through Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OSHMS). Initially, reported hazards data were collected via review of literatures, questionnaire distribution and interview with experts. Then, the most risky hazards based on conditions of selected STP were identified. Subsequently, the hazards were ranked based on severity and likelihood. Results show exposure to excessive noise, skin irritation and slip and fall are the main concerns of workers in the site. Therefore, noise mitigation was done using sound absorbers. It was indicated that the level of existing noise (94.2 dB) was reduced to 92.1 dB and 90.6 dB by application of carpet and cardboard, respectively. Skin irritation risk is suggested to be mitigated by installation of auto-cleaner, self-cleaning bar screen and scraper blades at the site. In addition, cordoning off areas while cleaning is in progress and provision of ramps at cleaning area around the clarifier are found to be the appropriate solutions for slip and fall risk at the site.","PeriodicalId":404626,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Business, Engineering & Industrial Applications Colloquium (BEIAC)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132118738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the primary concern of this study is to examine the relationship between trade openness and total output growth in the case of Malaysia (as one of the developing countries and emerging economies). In order to gain initial insight toward the relationship between trade openness and output growth Pearson Correlation was employed. While, the impact of trade openness toward output growth was estimated by using Ordinary Least Square Regression. In addition, the empirical work had extended towards Granger Causality Test to have a meaningful research study. This is due to some of the economist which saying that correlation is meaningless test without doing causation test. The empirical result derived provides evidence that Malaysia was not suffered from the trade openness since there is a positive relationship between trade openness and output growth. Thus, this study argues that developing country also can gain benefit from trade openness.","PeriodicalId":404626,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Business, Engineering & Industrial Applications Colloquium (BEIAC)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122194234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pink guava waste extract will act as the reducing agent in reduction process in order to reduce the aqueous salt solutions of the silver nitrate. Moreover, economically, this process will also lower the cost of producing metal nanoparticles compared to other methods. Boiled, separated, filtrated process was used for reducing silver nitrate. Silver nanoparticles were formed when the reaction conditions were altered with respect to ratio of extraction, pink guava waste extract content and aging time. The nanoparticles were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The colorless reaction mixtures turned brown and displayed UV - visible spectra characteristic of silver nanoparticles. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated the role of different functional groups (carboxyl, amine and hydroxyl) in the synthetic process. After 72 h of treatment, silver nanoparticles obtained were in the range of 23-105 nm as obtained from TEM.","PeriodicalId":404626,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Business, Engineering & Industrial Applications Colloquium (BEIAC)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121686023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, numerous IT projects have been approved and funded under several Malaysian National Plans. As the success of the existing or current IT projects in public sector are not properly evaluated has resulted in the same failures due to non-existence of a specific guideline, method or tool that can be used by public sector to evaluate their IT projects. This research aims at investigating the practice of IT project evaluation among the public sector agencies and analyzes how Malaysian public agencies evaluate their IT projects success or failure. A case study was conducted at one of the ministry as to seek data and information pertaining to the current practice of Malaysian government agencies in handling IT project evaluations. As anticipated, many project managers in public sector did not conduct IT projects evaluations. If it were conducted, most of the evaluations conducted improperly. The reasons why IT projects evaluation were not conducted properly were mainly because of the project managers did not have formal training and experience on IT projects evaluation and have not enough personnel to conduct IT projects evaluation. An IT project evaluation guideline has been developed, based on Balanced Scorecard and weighted scoring model, as a reference and guidance on conducting IT project evaluation.","PeriodicalId":404626,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE Business, Engineering & Industrial Applications Colloquium (BEIAC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129471346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
